Behind this simple story lay the story of Kathleen Thompson s determination, which enabled her to work 12 hours a day in a hardware store only to return home, wash the dishes, make the beds, and shoulder the bulk of the domestic responsibility. Under these circumstances she wrote assiduously, finding time only to study for a librarianship.
Mrs. Norris Praised
Her immense capacity for work ls the quality which the officers of the conference feel certain will make possible Mrs. Norris' extensive program of speaking engagements, one of the first of which will be today's address before the graduate group.
Reflecting the size of her reading audience, estimated by her publishers as roughly 2,000,000 women, sizable audiences, pre-eminently composed of women, have hailed her at every speaking engagement.
Audiences Impressed
Mothers, sisters, and fiancees, who have been enthralled lately by “Wife for Sale,” "Heart of Rachel." “Three Men and Diana.” and earlier by "The 8tory of Julia Page," and "Mother,” have been as (nuch impressed with her gospel of peace as with her novels of escape, according to newspaper reports of her earliest addresses.
Suspended until March, 1937, is the novelist's writing program, which calls for two novels for release through national magazines. Often, before she has laid aside fiction for a campaign—once during the late years of the war, later In the early '20s, to direct New York settlement work, periodically to engage In humanitarian work of a general nature, which Included hospital funds, community chest work, and animal rescue work.

The vote specifically was against 11- Klin7 A HflrPCCPQ putting union longshoremen aboard j i/I. l\UU£i fill u I CooCo the Panama Pacific liner California to carry out a federal court order for the unloading of 4.261 stems of bananas from the vessel.
Derision Is Final
The decision of the mass meeting, attended by approximately 2,000 men was regarded as “final” by union leaders. They said a meeting of the Joint strike committee would be held tomorrow where tonight's decision will be reported. This was regarded as only a formality.
Newspaper men were barred from the meeting, but as the strikers poured from Wilmington Bowl, a prizefight arena, they roared:
“No bananas!'*
It was understood 90 per cent of those present voted against handling the perishable cargoes. Although technically the vote merely affirms a decision of the central labor committee” and announced the union policies not to supply union longshoremen to unload the bananas, the move was regarded by union spokesmen as far more serious.
“It points to bloodshed,” one man said.
Ruling Explained
Under the set-up as decided by the union. Deputy United States Marshal Ray Ransdell will have to go aboard the California, start the engines which operate the unloading winches, and bring the cargo to the wharf. He may supply himself with "any or all" assistance he needs under the ruling of Federal Judge Paul J. McCormick.
The Intervention of the federal court, forced by the legal action of Otis McCalllster and company, fruit brokerage firm and consignee of the bananas, was regarded as unprecedented in labor controversies, according to John C. Parkard, Los Angeles attorney, who addressed the strikers’ meeting.

Green Notified Labor Reunion Truce ‘Futile’
Efforts To Obtain Peace Between Rival Groups Negated by Lewis
CIO Refuse* Compromise
Revolting Organizations To Intensify Campaign in Large Industries
PITTSBURGH, Nov. 8. — (UP)—The two-day conference of the committee for industrial organization adjourned tonight after notifying President William Green of the American Federation of Labor that the two union labor organizations could never reunite unless the federation lifted its suspension of CIO unions.
The CIO broke off “peace” nego-tloatlons with the A. F. of L. and announced it was embarking on a new, Intensified campaign to organize the mass production Industries on an Industrial union basis.
Efforts toward eventual realignment of the suspended CIO unions were started suddenly yesterday at the first day of the CIO’s two-day conference here. Those efforts collapsed even more suddenly and dramatically today.
John L. Lewis, leader of the so-called "rebel" unions, announced that further attempts for peace, under present circumstances, would be "futile." He revealed that the CIO will not be officially represented at thc A. F. of L. opening tn Tampa, Florida, a week from tomorrow.
The CIO had hoped to arrange a truce through a meeting of Lewis with Oreen, A. F. of L. president, and yesterday sent a telegram to Green asking him to confer with the United Mine Workers leader to discuss "existing differences." Lewis stipulated however, that the only basis for real peace would involve the revocation of thc suspension of himself and nine other CIO leaders on charges of "insubordination” for promoting dual unionism.
Green replied today. He said he would be willing to meet Lewis "even though this line of procedure for consideration and settlement of existing differences" was not authorized by the federation and even though “I lack authority to change the policy outlined by the executive council."
Lewis' reply to Green’s message left no room for a possible compromise.

Property Is not Value of Institution
By United Presi.
An educational Institution’s value can not be measured by dollar and cent value of its property. Superior Judge Minor Moore ruled last night.
Judge Moore, ruling In a suit to determine If graduates of a proposed School of Cosmetology and Nursing could be granted diplomas, held unconstitutional a section of the civil code that limited degrees to Institutions worth more than $50,000.
"Under such a law Socrates might establish a modest school to Instruct youth ln philosophy— but he would not be at. liberty to recommend students to a university—because that would be a professional certificate," he said.
Mussolini Asks for English Agreement
II Duce, in Interview with
London Editor, States Relations Desire
By Ward Price
ROME Nov. 8— (UR)—In the hope that Anglo-Itallan reconciliation may be carried beyond the stage of public speeches by either side, I asked Signor MussoUnl If he would tell me what practical measures for Its realization he had In mind. He replied at once ln three English words: “A gentleman's agreement,” adding quickly, "that Is what I want.”
"Might one know on what lines?’’ I inquired. "Would It be an agreement for defining respective spheres of Influence ln the Mediterranean or does your excellency mean a pact of non-aggression between Britain and Italy?”
II Duce Speak*
II Duce swept these ideas away with a sweep of his strong hand.
“Such things .would lead to fresh complications." he said. “I do not want to aggravate the pact mania which lately haa been raging. What I contemplate ls a solution as simple and clear as possible, as suits the psychology of Fascist Italy and also is congenial to British temperament.
"Anglo-Itallan Interests ln the Mediterranean are not antagonistic but are complementary. Neither nation can afford the luxury of being hostile to the other ln that sea.
BeneHU Cited
"The agreement should insure reciprocal protection of those Interests. It should, therefore, be a bilateral one and its charter should be such as to reassure completely other states bordering the Mediterranean.
“Finding a formula to embody this agreement ls not difficult but a necessary prelude to such a for-mulua is a new atmosphere which ls coming into existence. Tills new atmosphere Justifies the belief that a fresh page ls being turned ln the record of relations between our two countries."

Hail to California, 13-7 victor over U. S. C. in the coliseum Saturday.
|Hall to a fighting bunch of Golden Bears who did what five other teams have failed to do this year.

Hail to big Bob Herwig, an all-American in this or any other league.
Team Praised
Yes. and hall to Sam Chapman, a masterful punter; to John Meek, durable defender; to Vic Bottarl, passer extraordinary; to an entire California line that refused to give ground.
The Trojans have gone through some go^cl football teams this fall, but it took a squad that has been pushed around by all other major opposition finally to beat them.
California, rated tops among coast teams at the start of the season, suffered defeats at the hands of St. Mary's, U. C. L. A., Washington, and Washington State.
The Bears became known this year as an outfit with plenty of material and great potentialities, but no fire—and above all, no passing attack.
Fawea Ruin Troy
Vet It was with passes that they subdued the hitherto unbeaten Trojans Saturday—passes and an undeniable will to win. Against these, U. S. C. could muster only a halfhearted defense and an offense that failed to match previous exhibitions in either gusto or finesse.
It may be true that Howard Jones' boys made the mistake of concentrating too soon on their important game with the Washington Huskies at Seattle next Saturday. Or It may be that they’re Just mediocre and overrated, not yet fit for first class consideration.

Derision Is Final
The decision of the mass meeting, attended by approximately 2,000 men was regarded as “final” by union leaders. They said a meeting of the Joint strike committee would be held tomorrow where tonight's decision will be reported. This was regarded as only a formality.
Newspaper men were barred from the meeting, but as the strikers poured from Wilmington Bowl, a prizefight arena, they roared:
“No bananas!'*
It was understood 90 per cent of those present voted against handling the perishable cargoes. Although technically the vote merely affirms a decision of the central labor committee” and announced the union policies not to supply union longshoremen to unload the bananas, the move was regarded by union spokesmen as far more serious.
“It points to bloodshed,” one man said.
Ruling Explained
Under the set-up as decided by the union. Deputy United States Marshal Ray Ransdell will have to go aboard the California, start the engines which operate the unloading winches, and bring the cargo to the wharf. He may supply himself with "any or all" assistance he needs under the ruling of Federal Judge Paul J. McCormick.
The Intervention of the federal court, forced by the legal action of Otis McCalllster and company, fruit brokerage firm and consignee of the bananas, was regarded as unprecedented in labor controversies, according to John C. Parkard, Los Angeles attorney, who addressed the strikers’ meeting.
